Redirect to https for WordPress

If your site already has an SSL certificate, you have most likely enabled automatic redirect from http to https in the Backlight 2 admin panel:

Automatically Redirect Browsers To https

Unfortunately, this redirect doesn’t work for WordPress based pages. But there is an easy fix for that. Just add following few lines at the beginning of your .htaccess file for your WordPress directory. For me, this file is in /blog.

# Redirect to https
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} !=on
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=301,NE]
